What happens when you think you have everything?

What man of you, having an hundred sheep,

if he lose one of them doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness,

and go after that which is lost, until he find it?


Luke 15:4

I just came back from me and my babes' weekly dinner, ala Sex and The City customary girl outings to bitch about work, men, clothes and other women.

This time it is at a nice small exclusive seafood place, open air and opened out to the sea. Brillant.

And the crabs were baked to perfection..


Sweet. Can life get any better than this, I reflected to myself.

SO what happens when you have everything?


Do you still wish to have more? With everything else in place, do you still seek for that elusive part which you feel will complete you wholly. Or is there even such a thing as completion?

How much more do you want when you think you have it all?

Please don't get me wrong, I am thankful to the Lord every single day, in fact I sometimes ask what have I done to deserve such bountiful blessings when there are so many others who are suffering.

What am I still longing for?

I have everything I have ever wanted and needed for now..

I am single and free, pleased to do anything I wish and like.

Perhaps the one I have conjured in my head is still eluding me.

Always keep Ithaca in your mind.

To arrive there is your ultimate goal.

But do not hurry the voyage at all.

It is better to let it last for many years;

and to anchor at the island when you are old,

rich with all you have gained on the way,

not expecting that Ithaca will offer you riches.

Constantine Cavafy (1863-1933)
